A COMPROMISE
Between the Socialists and George Men
One of the Possibilities.

Hstween the Socialists and George Men
One of the Possibilities.
New YORK, September l9.-The Mall
and ErDrcss says: ItnOw seems more than
probable that there will be deal between
the Socialists aud the United Labor party.
/ GOOD many of the United Labor men
who would have opposed such a scheme on
Saturday are i'm favor of it to-day.
Editor Shevitch and other members Of
the Socialistic party are IN n Juhllant
mood. Their followers remained away
from the United Labor mass meeting on
Saturday night and it WAS comparative
f,iIure In addition to this, IN the hgnt
m the Central Labor Union yesterday,
they developed q strength that made the
George men shiver. This was a decided
.at hack to the George men. who held
that since the Syracuse Convention
the Socialists had no strength.
Fiolring on the vote oi
Yesterday, the SOcialistic leaders say to-
day that they will poll more than enongh
VOTES in the coming election to neutrallLe
the vote of the Union Labor party IN thls
rity On the other hand, the Georgemen
Say the vote of yesterday is not a iair test,
and that no estimate can be based upon H.
Nevertheless, there are those among the
Labormeu who say that MIR. George VIII
hold ont the olive branch to the SOCIALISTS
before many days.

The Reports Concerning the 80 Gallo

The Reports Concerning the 80 Cnllod
Snubs by Mrs. Cleveland False.
PHILADELPHIA, September 19.-The
Times, Independent, says editorially this
morning:
Some of the papers in other cities, which
manifested little interest in advance in the
Constitutional Centennial, are just now
taking lively interest in the invention of
incidents that escaped observation in Phil
adelphia. Perhaps it may be the cordial
respect with which the President and Mrs.
Cleveland were everywhere treated that
has suggested the invention of incidents
to make them uncomfortable. 1t is re-
ported for example, that Mrs. Cleveland
turned her back on the Ohio troops, that
she turned her back ON the Grand Army,
that she snubbed Mrs. Foraker, and vari-
Gus other things of the same kind. Or course
those are all lies, but organs do not
mind that That Mrs. Cleveland LETT her
place on the balcony before the military
parade was over Is quite true; very many
| ladies did the same and more would have
done so if they could. Otherwise the re-
ports referred TO seem to have been made
out of the whole cloth and probably with
malice prepense. With the exception OF
the unfortunate blunder of the Ohio col
! onel who marched his regiment past the
/ reviewing stand without slluting there
was not thing connected with the Presi-
dents visit to Philadelphia that could
possibly be twisted into discOurtesy on
anv side, and it is such petty efforts as these
to stir up or suggest i'll feeling that Justify
the hard things that are sometimes SAID
| about newspapers.

A TURBULENT SCENE.
DR. M'GLYNN ADDRESSES AN ASSOCIATION
OF METHODIST PREACHERS.
An Eloquent Address-ResOlutiOns Of Thanks Pro-
woke an Exciting Tins-GeOrge's Land Theories
Not ApprOved-Au Amendment to the
Resolutions Carried.

NEW YORK, September 19.-Rev. DIR.
McCilynn made an address before the New
York Association Of Methodist preachers
which lasted an hour and half and was
listened to by 5000 ministers and others.
DR.. McGlynn referred to his excommuni-
cation "for preaching the Christianity
was brought up ip,' and after referring to
the peculiar position in which he found
himself, in facing body of so distinctive
representation of the Protestant religion,
he presented the Henry George hand theories
and defended them, a. representing the
cause OF humanity. When the speaker
had concluded, gentleman offered reso-
luton of thanks to DIR. McGlynn for his
liable, eloquent and instructive" address
and wishing him God speed in his efforts to
diffusethe doctrine OF the fatherhOOd Of God
and the brotherhood of man; this created
great confusion and after a turbulent scene,
which one clergyman characterized as re-
sembling beer garden, the resolution was
amended by q clause that allowed the
members to reserve the right Of individual
, opinion, concerning the land theories and
adopted.

COL. FREEMAN EXPLAINS.
The Alleged Insult to the President-lt
Was a Mistake.

PITTsBURa, September ls.-General
Wiley said, in an interview this morning,
he had lengthy conversation before leay-
ing the Quaker City with Colonel Freeman,
of the Ohio National Guard, who, 1t was
ALLEGED, had insulted President Cleveland
by refusing to salute him VIXEN his regi-
ment was passing the reviewing stand.
Colonel Freeman told me, said the gen
eral. THAT there was nothing further from
his thoughts than to deliberately insult
the President. He said he knew his duty
too well rs soldier and was raised
too much of gentleman to do
such thing. The whole matter was he
did not know where the reviewing stand
was located as there WAS no 'mar6er' to
distinguish the Presidents staud from any
of the Others along the street. The story
about Mrs. Cleveland leaving the balcony
when she saw the Grand Army division ap-
preaching for the purpose ol openly insult
ing that body is base fabrication and the
yeTie,t nonsense. Mrs Cleveland is a
true American lady and would on no ac-
count commit gross breach OF discipline
of that kind.

no dissent in Parlor No. /, where the In
cident occurred"
Mr.. Phelps told the reporter that Blame
did not want the nomination in lSSs, and
that his friends were doing absolutely
nothing" to secure his nomination. MI.
